Update to the very latest SVN version. This is the version i stick with and will be testing against.
Post a COMPLETE debug log to pastebin and link it here (make sure this log catches the update library procedure, look for lines containing "Failed to Enumerate"). If you don't upload this log I cannot help and wont even bother. Sorry but time is to short to help those that wont help themselves

It keeps a database with original air date and all other data which myth pulls from zap2it. Maybe this should be in another thread, I'm burning this issue at 4 ends here. Open source renaming app BTVRename using tvrage which I am admin on sourceforge, on the btv forums, btv APIs, and XBMC scraper recognition. There has to be a way to integrate btv library into xbmc.

I'm running BeyondTV as well, and it saves all recorded TV shows in a format that doesn't appear to be supported by XBMC...

Is it possible for the regexp to parse shows that are all stored in a single directory in the following format:

American Dad-(1600 Candles)-2008-10-05-0.wmv
American Dad-(A.T. the Abusive Terrestrial)-2008-09-21-0.wmv

I have my tv shows folder being scanned, inside is this format (example):

Battlestar Galactica/season1e1e2e3e4/VIDEO_TS.IFO (plus all the other VOB's and such)

these are backed up via dvd shrink so they are not by episode, instead by disc, I've read in the wiki's and elsewhere that it's relatively easy to get this to work but so far I've had no luck, any advice would be appreciated

hey I could use some help matching my recording methods with your regex. I just switched over to linux and am trying to get MYTH working with XBMC's library. I need a file naming system to match the REGEX. I have the option of renaming files as a job by accessing the database after they are recorded. These are my options.

It says could not enumerate file in front of all the filenames around line 550. It does appear to get the show name correct though.

Thanks again.

The bext version should match your format.

CVideoInfoScanner::OnProcessSeriesFolder: Asked to lookup episode /home/joel/Videos/My Videos/TV2/Battlestar Galactica/[S1]_[E1E2E3E4]/VIDEO_TS.IFO online, but we have no episode guide. Check your tvshow.nfo and make sure the <episodeguide> tag is in place.

TBH i think multi ep isos are a bit silly and as such I have no experience of them and no way to do any tests. Its personal opinion but can you not rethink your backup strategy to something more elegant? Regardless your scheme will be no use to almost anyone except yourself and as such I wont be including it in this set

I am going to start ignoring requests for support that dont come with a debug log that show both the "Failed to Enumerate" log entrys and my attached advanced settings (i.e. i should see my extra REGEX being loaded in the log).

If I dont see this I am going to ignore the support request and concentrate on helping those users that show commitment to helping themselves. There have been a few requests for help from users that clearly havent even tried my regex and I have no interest in that.

Remember this is thread for extra regex that will help lots of users. Not xe's REGEX help line
